McEwen Mining Inc. (MUX-1.47%) has submitted its Form 10-K filing for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2024.

The filing details the company's financial performance, including a net loss of $43.7 million for the year, compared to a net income of $55.3 million in the previous year. The loss was primarily attributed to the absence of a one-time gain from the deconsolidation of McEwen Copper Inc. that was recorded in 2023.

Revenue from gold and silver sales increased to $174.5 million, up from $166.2 million in 2023, despite a decrease in gold equivalent ounces sold. This increase was driven by higher realized gold prices.
